It's Titan, not Europa, and it's very close to the gravity on the Moon (about 85% of the Moons's gravity or a seventh of Earth's gravity compared to a sixth on the Moon). Also don't forget they're wearing heavy clunky suits.

The real problem with Titan is that it has a thick atmosphere at -180 C°, with winds and liquid methane rains. It's gotta be a lot harder for the suits to keep the heat inside compared to vacuum of space which naturally provides insulation (I haven't actually watched the show so IDK if they address this).

They do not meaningfully address anything about Titan. Just outside air bad and climbing hard for some reason.

Also they've been at 0g for quite a while before reaching Titan.

If that so heavily crippled their strength that they can no longer lift 15% of their body weight, those plot convenient artificial gravity magnetic boots that somehow make everything heavier on the ship would have been a bitch to wear walking out of that airlock.
